Thanks for this man, I got my TF101 yesterday and couldn't spend more than 5 minutes without root.

Your exploit worked a treat

I did add 1 line at the end:

adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/

ViperMod use NachoRoot but everthing is done for you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] B_atto:
Hey Guys. I got a big Problem over here. Nachoroot wont work and i dont know why. I hope you can help me.

Its an Asus TF101G with DE_epad-8.6.6.23

First i tried the Vipermod and did as said. Debuggin ON, Kill Asus Sync + Splashtop and installed the drivers. I choosed Option 3 in Vipermod.exe and let it work.

But i got this Error Message "vid=2000<shell> gid=2000<shell>" every time.

So i tried to get root with nachoroot with sdk. Now Im hung by this step:

adb push nachoroot.bin /data/local/

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/nachoroot.bin

adb shell /data/local/nachoroot.bin --stage1

It started but it gives me this Error:

failed on ´ /data/sensors/AMI304_Config.ini´ - no such or directory

What am I doing wrong?

PS: I send my TF101G to Asus because something was broke. But i tested Vipermod before and it worked. I could root and unroot but now, after i get it back i cant. For more Information: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24030423#post24030423

Just an FYI:

this method won't unlock your bootloader.

I found that out the first time I tried to push something to /system with adb.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Sharpe351:
In order to unlock the bootloader, you need to get the tool that Asus hasn't released yet. They are rumored to release it some time in the near future.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] perquisitor_omnia:
I was planning on pulling the bootloader off of my tablet with nvflash and using the unpacking tool to set ro.secure=0 myself, but I have one of the fun tablets that nvflash doens't work for yet, so I will probably have to wait for the official tool.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jcase:
Its root, not bootlaoder unlock, however you can still push something to system with adb, you have have to mount system as RW, like anytime you want to push to system

I'm sorry for the dumb question, but what folder should the nachoroot.bin and su files go on my computer?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:

The easy way to use nachoroot....it's to use viper mod tool! It worked great on mine runing 8.6.6.23

'adb push <file> /system' says permission denied as well even after remounting /system from the tablet.

In my case everything's fine up to

I tried again all steps from beginning, but get the same output.

Command "adb remount" after the output above, fails with "remount failed: Operation not permitted".

I expected that, since my Transformer TF101 isn't (hopefully yet) rooted.

To connect to one devices, use

Hi Guys,

Just rooted my TF101 (build.US_epad-8.6.5.21-20111216), worked really well, once i Figured out which usb cable to use (doh).

OK so now I am rooted, installed superuser and worked fine, also installed OTA keeper.

How do I get CWM installed, I installed ROM Manager from market place ( which I have since read doesnt support transformer ).

So I was going to try install CWM from the recovery console, I pressed power and volume down, which then said press volume up to enter RC. I pressed up and all I got was a large andriod Icon with a triangle in its stomach with a exclamation mark.

Am I doing something wrong ?
